hi

In order for solaris to detect 2 of my drives that are SATA
i had to turn raid off and set them to IDE.

i want to format them so that i am able to write to them
they are in NTFS right now and i am able to mount
and read from them but can not write to them.

i am not familar with UFS or ZFS or Pools but here is where i got stuck

code:

format


AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS:
       0. c0d0 <drive type unknown>
          /[EMAIL PROTECTED],0/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL
